Package: texmacs
Version: 1:1.0.5-3
Severity: normal

PDF exporting looks horribly, because the postrscript file generated by
TeXmacs uses Type 3 bitmapped fonts.

As discussed many times for TeX files, which had the same problems a
few time ago, the solution is to use Type 1 instead of Type 3 while
genereating PS files for PDF display.

It is really an annoying problem, which limits TeXMacs uses to printer
only output.

I place the severity to normal, but it makes texmacs completely
unuseable for anything other than printer. Maybe setting this bug to
important would be much more conform.

See dvips or ggole for further informations about type1 / type3 problems
in PDF.
